I am starting a TT job in a large teaching focused public university right out of grad school.
It would be helpful to see discussion about which fellowships one should apply to and what strategies or best practices folks know of when applying. I am thinking of fellowships to support research run by organizations such as the Ford, Woodrow Wilson and Carnegie Mellon foundations.
Maybe one question is: is there an applicant profile that tends to be successful apart from profiles that include Ivy-League or elite education?
I did my grad work at a top 10-20 program.
This is actually something I know nothing about. I do know some people who have been very successful in this regard, yet I have never asked them about application strategies. Anyone in the know have any insight to share?
